Chapter 457 The Eve of the Palace Examination

The teenagers all felt their scalps numb after listening to a series of rules.

He Zheng couldn't help but said: "I can tolerate not eating or drinking for a day, but isn't it a bit too much to go to the toilet for a day?"

Jiang Yan, the only person present who had participated in the palace examination, replied: "There is no way. This is also to ensure the fairness of the palace examination. For this reason, I can only endure it. There is no other way."

Xu Wan added: "After eating before midnight tonight, drink as little water as possible, and do a little courtesy before taking part in the palace examination tomorrow morning. This should help you survive until the end of the palace examination tomorrow morning."

Shen Yibai howled: "Then I have to kneel and sit all day long. My knees are about to break. Can you put something on your back?"

Jiang Yan quickly denied: "You can't be disrespectful to the emperor."

Shen Yibai: "...Okay."

"There are so many rules." Zong Jincheng was also confused after hearing this.

Pan Hongzhi and others were quite happy: "There are more rules, but it is the dream of thousands of students all over the world to be qualified to take the palace examination, and the candidates are more excited."

Wei Xinglu also suddenly thought of something: "Yes, when Jin Cheng told people before that Gongyuan was a small, dilapidated, dark room, those people were still very envious."

The little devil curled his lips and said, "Okay, I'm comforted."

After explaining the rules of the palace examination, there was not much to say about other pre-examination rules, they all understood them.

In the next half day, Xu Wan gave them a short vacation, allowing everyone to rest and relax in the mansion and adjust their mentality to prepare for tomorrow's palace examination.

The little devil had nothing to relax about, so he pestered Xu Wan to discuss the reward: "Mom, when the results of the palace exam come out tomorrow, you will get a reward of 100,000 taels if I win the first grade. You really can't share it with me? ?”

If he didn't say it, Xu Wan would almost forget about it.

That's right, she brought this little naughty boy with her in the first place because her mother-in-law drew a pie worth one hundred thousand taels for her, and now, she was about to eat it.

Cuizhi added from the side: "The old lady and the old Marquis went out early in the morning, it seems that it was just for this matter."

Xu Wan: "!"

Mother-in-law has already gone to withdraw money? ?

The dream of retirement care is actually coming true!

Zong Jincheng was still shaking her sleeves: "Mom, I also want a reward, I am your great hero!"

He is right to say that.

Because of his golden grandson, Xu Wan was able to take over the high-priced job of supervising a teacher.

She asked in a good mood: "What do you want?"

In fact, once the imperial examination is over and everything is back to you, she will no longer have to control Zong Jincheng's gold and silver. He can buy whatever he wants and there will be no shortage of money at all.

Zong Jincheng said with a smile: "I want a wish, but I haven't thought about it yet."

Xu Wan said funnyly: "Where are you prepaying your wish? If you don't explain it now, if you ask me for one hundred thousand taels, I will give it all to you?"

Zong Jincheng howled: "It's not money, it's something else, something else!"

Xu Wan thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll see when the time comes. If I can do it, I'll make it come true for you. If you can't, I'll let you wait for a new wish later."

Zong Jincheng: "..."

It seemed like he agreed, but he seemed like he didn't.

The little devil was not satisfied. He was just about to continue to pester her with questions when he heard the maid outside reporting: "Madam, the general sent someone to pick up the young master. He said that the Lord Protector wanted to see him."

Zong Zhao went to the Protector's Mansion early in the morning.

Xu Wan knew that they were going to discuss important matters after the imperial examination, and there must have been something she wanted to ask Jin Cheng for her opinion in the middle of the conversation.

She responded: "Okay, go prepare the carriage. I will take Jincheng there in a moment."

"yes."

Zong Jincheng said excitedly: "It's good to go out for a ride. Although it's not a shopping trip, it's not bad to go to the Protector's Mansion. His house is bigger than ours. Mom, why don't we open the yard next door as well?" Would you like to buy it? I also want to double the size of our home.”

Xu Wan held his hand and said as they walked: "Why do you need to double the size? It's big enough now. Do you want to walk for half an hour when you go home every day? It's exhausting."

Zong Jincheng quickly explained: "No, the place where we live remains unchanged, and the new yard we come over can build some martial arts training grounds, horse riding stables, and chicken farms!"

"Pfft..." Xu Wan burst into laughter, "This seems to be a good idea. If you want to plant another garden of vegetables, maybe Mr. Su will come after smelling the smell."

Zong Jincheng smiled proudly: "Haha, then my idea is good, right? This way, even if you are just at home, you can have fun without going out for a year!"

Xu Wan nodded and said: "I think it's good. I'll ask your grandmother and others for their opinions later."

"good!"

The two of them were already sitting in the carriage while they were talking.

When the curtain was about to be lowered, Xu Wan was a little worried and said outside: "Cuizhi and Shunzi don't have to follow us. Let's replace the accompanying coachmen and servants with the guards from the mansion."

Cuizhi was puzzled: "Madam, will my servant follow you too?"

Why do I always take Cuiliu with me lately, but not her?

Doesn’t it seem like a maid who doesn’t know how to use martial arts has no future?

Xu Wan felt that there were too many people and didn't want to be too ostentatious, so she replied: "Go and check their dinner again, and tell the kitchen to only use commonly eaten ingredients."

"Yes." Cuizhi led the living and others to retreat.

Zong Jincheng sat in the carriage and blinked at her.

Xu Wan smiled and said: "It's time for the palace test tomorrow. It's always good to be careful, lest you cause trouble again."

The little devil pursed his lips and said with great dissatisfaction: "Mom, you slandered me, but I won't cause trouble. I am now the best-behaved child in the world!"

Xu Wan was overjoyed and said, "Yes, yes, you are the best now, but who can blame our little Jincheng for his sense of justice? If you want to help someone on the road, mother can ask someone to help you, right?"

Zong Jincheng said with a curved mouth: "That makes sense! Mother knows me best!"

Xu Wan laughed and said, "Little fool."

The carriage drove steadily towards the Protectorate Mansion.

The sky gradually darkened, and there was a trend of change.

Xu Wan was afraid of rain, so she said outside: "Cui Liu, there is still a long way to go, let the driver go back first. Send someone to tell the general and the Protectorate that it is going to rain, and Jincheng will not go today. Otherwise, if he catches a cold outside, it may affect tomorrow's palace examination."

"Yes."

However, before Cui Liu finished speaking, a group of people in black suddenly appeared under the eaves on both sides of the road, like ghosts, with a strong murderous aura on them, and the deathly aura that soared into the sky was frightening.

Cui Liu recognized this group of people at a glance.

She was always calm, but she couldn't help but be shocked.

These people were not killers at all.

They were...death warriors.
